Get out there. Get Stashd.
A real-world stash-hunting game. Drop physical stashes out in the wild, share clues, and send friends on the hunt to find them.
Everyday places, secretly exciting.
1. Drop a stash
2. Hunt with clues
3. See it come alive
Hide something in the real world and drop a pin — anywhere you can physically stand.
No straight lines to the prize — track distance and direction clues to close in on the stash.
String stashes together into a trail — a themed sequence of hunts with chapters and progress.
Add friends, see who's found what, and race each other to the next stash.
It's a game if you want it to be — collect badges, earn XP, and climb the leaderboards. It's all entirely optional: hunt casually and Stashd stays free, forever.
Stashd is just getting started — here's what's coming.
Digital badges spawn nearby mid-hunt — collect them for points, chase themed seasonal sets, and unlock rare and legendary tiers.
Earn XP for every find, drop, and streak. First to find a stash gets a bonus. Climb the monthly and all-time leaderboards.
Chain, Constellation, or Story trails link stashes into a themed adventure — complete with chapters, progress, and a completion badge.
Set a Drifter loose with a purchasable code, drop it in a stash, and track its journey as other hunters carry it onward.
Already have a Geocaching container out there? Add a Stashd code alongside your existing log, confirm with a photo, and it dual-lists on the Stashd map too — no need to move it or leave Geocaching behind. Earn XP for bringing it across.
See friends' avatars moving on the map in real time, control exactly who can see yours, and add friends straight from a hunt.
Find a stash once and permanently unlock its full logbook — every past finder's comments and photos. Add your own note and picture for the next hunter to see.
Keep a stash off the public map, invite your own hunters, and run a private game just for your group.
Optional subscriptions boost your XP and unlock rare badge tiers — the free tier stays fully playable, forever.

We're honest that the traditional way has millions of caches and a huge head start — we're trying to build a fun community of stashers, and that will take time. If you're already part of that community, you don't have to choose: we invite you to dual-list your existing cache on the Stashd map too, using a super-simple process of code generation and a proof-picture upload.
We're putting the finishing touches on it. Drop your email and we'll let you know the moment it launches.
